One thing that's interesting, that I should have included before, is that in the kernel release where things were acting normally, my dvd and cd drives were appearing as standard IDE drives, the problem surfaces when they're routed through scsi emulation. I've tried loading the generic ide module before the ata_piix module (my sata/ide controller is an Intel ICH5). This causes the optical drives to be loaded as plain IDE devices but does not allow DMA to be used making it a bad fix. Similarly, I'm unable to use DMA modes when using the old piix module.
